Question

Please Help me i need help Pleaaaasssseeeee im not good at numbers ._. Find the equation of the line that passes through the point (2,-6) and is perpendicular to the line y=1/4x-2.

Answer 1

y = -4x + 2

Explanation:

1) Find perpendicular slope

1/4 = -4

2) Plug in x and y

y = -4x + b

((((( y = -6, x = 2 ))))))

-6 = -4(2) +b

-6 = -8 + b

2 = b

3) Return to equation but plug in b, but not x and y

y = -4x + 2
